In this video, learn how to use the headloss calculator to estimate pressure loss in a piping system and ensure optimal pump performance.

Discover how to:

  • Search for a Xylem product using the Search tile and access detailed pump information.

  • Use the Head Loss Calculator to input duty points, pipe details, and fluid conditions.

  • Define piping characteristics such as lengths, diameters, and materials to calculate head losses.

  • Adjust environmental conditions like ambient temperature, elevation and submergence to affect NPSH available.

  • Select the appropriate layout and system type for your station, including suction lift and discharge head details.

  • Add pipes, fittings, and calculate friction losses to optimize system performance.
